Abstract

The present invention describes methods for producing metal binding sites on polypeptides, and particularly for producing metal binding sites within the CDR regions of immunoglobulin heavy or light chains that are displayed on the surface of filamentous phage particles. The invention also describes oligonucleotides useful for preparing the metal binding sites, and human monoclonal antibodies produced by the present methods.
